Reviews

Loved my perfectly packaged locket. I didn't take a picture of the locket itself because the sellers picture is perfect. I love my locket and can't wait to use it on my wedding day! Katherine thank you for so sweetly preparing such a sweet card with my locket! I will definitely look to order from you again in the future!

Keepsakes by Katherine was formerly known as Shop Polka Dots. After receiving quite a few custom wedding orders I had a change in focus and Keepsakes by Katherine began. At Keepsakes By Katherine I always keep your budget in mind. I encourage custom orders and you will find that most of my items are made to order allowing you to choose colors and styles. I make something for everyone who is getting married. If you are planning a wedding or planning on attending a wedding, I think you will find the perfect bouquet, boutonniere and corsage accents for your big day right here at Keepsakes by Katherine.
It is a privilege and an honor to be part of your celebration of love.
I am excited to share that Keepsakes By Katherine has been featured in Bride magazine,Wedding Magazine, and Confetti Daydreams Magazine and Davids Bridal recommends Keepsakes by Katherine to their customers too.

I use swarovski pearls, and crystals,cubic zirconia, .925 sterling silver and other quality elements in my creations.

Keepsakes By Katherine has been referred to as the brides good luck charm.
I take great pride in providing a positive shopping experience and I look forward to creating for you.
Warmly, Katherine

Additional policies and FAQs

ABOUT THE LOCKETS AND CHARMS
I do my best to convert inches into mm

• When the description reads "silver plated" lockets are silver plated over brass
• Sterling silver lockets and charms are .925 sterling silver
• Vintage- vintage lockets are often heavily rubbed with blackening ( vintage compound) inside and out and may appear aged/worn/raggedy to complete the vintage effect
• Small lockets hold one photo, Small Sterling lockets hold two
• Larger lockets hold two
• All lockets are light weight so they will not pull on the bouquet when attached.
• A template is included with every locket- the template is meant as a guide and does not fit exactly, you will need to trim and size accordingly.
• There is a lip inside every locket where the photo is held in.
• The photo frame charms have a clear plastic sleeve that you insert in a slit at the top of the frame with the photo/photos inside.
• Lockets are made to be light weight so as not to pull on your bouquet handle.
• Bouquet charms and lockets come with a pearl ended pin, a lobster clasp attached and 30 inches or sheer organza ribbon. Providing plenty of options for attaching to your bouquet.
• Most of the lockets and charms displayed in my shop were attached to the bouquet using the following method-
Insert pearl ended pin into the bouquet handle.
Clip the lobster clasp clip to the pin just below the pearl.
Wrap with ribbon to cover the lobster clasp etc.
There are other options too, Please request your free tutorial at checkout.

CARING FOR YOUR SILVER PURCHASE

• Keep them sealed in their plastic bags and inside their boxes.
• Moisture in the air causes silver to tarnish. If necessary you may want to invest in a silver polishing cloth.
